Abstract
In a photoelectric transducer apparatus having a plurality of photoelectric transducer elements each having a capacitor electrode formed on a control electrode of a corresponding semiconductor transistor, the apparatus being adapted to sequentially select each element in units of lines, to control a potential of the control electrode of the selected photoelectric transducer element through the capacitor electrode, to store carriers in the control electrode region, and to read out a signal component corresponding to the amount of charge, the apparatus includes: optical information storing memory for storing optical information read out from the photoelectric transducer element; and dark voltage storing memory for storing a voltage corresponding to a dark voltage read out from the photoelectric transducer element, and actual optical information stored in the optical information storing memory and information corresponding to the dark voltage component stored in the dark voltage storing memory are simultaneously read out onto different information output lines.
